    Do you have to manually turn the camera on every time you start the bike in order for it to record?

    The BSM turns on with the ignition, the cameras do not.

    Hi Corey,
    The camera should turn on as soon as the ignition is turned on. I assume you connected the yellow wire to a switched power supply as instructed in the manual.
    When the ignition is turned on, do you see green or red LEDs on the camera lit continuously or flashing? Do they stay on or go off after a while?

    This is the startup sequence focused on the front camera, mounted below the triple tree. It simply doesn’t turn on. It will turn on if I press the button to activate it manually. The BSM system works from startup with no issues.

    Hi Corey,
    Check all connections carefully to make sure they’re secure.
    Is there any damaged cable?
    If you started the RC6 manually, does it record video properly? Does it record video with the rear camera as well?
    If you remove the SD card and then start it up, what happens? Perhaps try a different SD card?
    Have you tried reloading the firmware?
